Also, the problem gives little information and requires students to keep everything in general. Oftentimes students will get stuck looking for too much information, when all that's important is finding the relative phase in the expectation value for A.} {{page>homework:ph425questions:frequency}} - (Expectation) \textit{This is a well-rounded problem that has students perform a little of everything. Students will have to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the hamiltonian, time evolve, calculate probabilities, and find an expectation value.} {{page>homework:ph425questions:expectation}} - {{page>homework:ph425questions:expectationa}} - {{page>homework:ph425questions:expectationb}} - (Uncertainty) {{page>homework:ph425questions:uncertainty}} {{page>wiki:footers:courses:spfooter}}
